Contributing Writer

Our city is undoubtedly beautiful during every season, but it truly gains a special charm during fall, which is why we sought out the best places in Montreal to go and admire the colourful leaves right now.

Most of the leaves will have fallen in just a few short weeks, so we need to make the most of the shortest, yet prettiest, season!

Montreal Botanical Garden

Where: 4101, rue Sherbrooke E., Montreal, QC

Why You Need To Go: The Botanical Garden is stunning during any season, but it truly comes to life during the fall. And it's also absolutely magical at night.

Parc La Fontaine

Saint Joseph's Oratory

Where: 3800, Queen Mary Road, Montreal, QC
